Bits 19:16 – TCP[3:0] Timestamp Counter Prescaler

Configures the timestamp and timeout counters time unit in multiples of CAN bit times [ 1…16 ]. The actual interpretation by the hardware of this value is such that one more than the value programmed here is used.

Bits 1:0 – TSS[1:0] Timestamp Select

With CAN FD, an external counter is required for timestamp generation (TSS = 2).
